Bubble Bath Time!! :)

So, one night, Paula wanted to take a bubble bath when she was staying up a little late to prepare for going back to work. Well, I have to admit I fell asleep downstairs and forgot to make sure RJ was still asleep. :( I was such an idiot.
Due to me being asleep, I didn't find out about any of this until the afternoon when Paula eventually woke up.
Anyways, Paula started filling a bath and left it running. Well, while she was doing something else, RJ showed up and messed with the tub, water, and bubbles. It was insane! When Paula came back, her tub was almost to overflowing and the water was burning hot! It was insane. She started to fix it and then remember she forgot to get something, so she left again.
RJ again came into the bathroom and changed the water again!
But this time, while RJ was fiddling with the water, Paula caught him! ---and put him in time out and sent him to bed.

I'm beginning to think that my nephew will never ever behave. I hope my brother has worked out the whole situation with his wife soon, cause RJ is starting to wear out his welcome!

Fireworks and MORE CAMPING!!!!!!

On our camping trip, we even manage to cook in Jon's new Dutch Oven! We made blackberry cobbler, and pork chops covered in mushroom sauce with potatoes and onions! Yummy! Just talking about it all makes my mouth water... The only thing better would have been some type of chocolate dessert --- maybe a big chocolate chip cookie or a brownie. Oh well, S'MORES for me!! :)

Well as you can probably already tell from the pictures, RJ wanted to help Jon cook. We told him no, but he kept moving closer and closer until he was about to jump onto the hot dutch oven. So right as he jumped, Jon grabbed him before he landed on it. Thank God for that!

I told Jon he should of let him jump, cause if he had gotten hurt, he would have at least learned for the next time... But no, we had to do it this way. Then Jon had him the lid lifter and the fire gloves and let RJ play with the fire and the food... At least Jon was kind of supervising him, so the food didn't get burned!

After we had our food ( & it was AMAZING!!!), we wondered over to the dam at Pomme de Terre to go watch some fireworks for the 4th! :) I was so excited... We went over there and WOW!! It was great! We had the best seat and Jon and Paula left us on our own for a few so they could move to a different spot to see all the fireworks. :) So me and RJ bonded as we watched the sky turn into different colors and snacked on some food and drinks left in the car. :)

Camping...

Sorry for the long departure, its been one heck summer. :( And I am counting down the days until RJ goes on a little trip back home :) .... Only 60 days left!!!!!! I don't know if I can survive. I'll be glad when it goes back to being just me!.
Anyways, at the beginning of July, me, RJ, Paula, and Jon packed up and went camping! :) The first time all summer! I was so excited and the weather was perfect. I even got out of the air conditioning to come enjoy the weather.

The weekend passed too quickly for me, with Jon and Paula watching RJ and making sure he was not jumping into the fire pit, making a mess of dinner, bothering the neighbors, etc. But even they could not stop him from getting into trouble. :( ...
However, for the most part, we all enjoyed the weekend. RJ and me got to hang out in the tent and take naps when Jon and Paula were swimming. When some of Jon and Paula's friends came to visit, they brought us a Mountain Dew! :) We even got to start our new book, Breaking Dawn! Don't worry that post is coming soon...
